I'm pretty sure I'm doing everything correctly:

call plug#begin('~/.local/share/nvim/plugged')

    " Deoplete (autocompletion); https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim
    Plug 'Shougo/deoplete.nvim', { 'do': ':UpdateRemotePlugins' }
        let g:deoplete#enable_at_startup = 1
        inoremap <expr><TAB>  pumvisible() ? "\<C-n>" : "\<TAB>"
        inoremap <expr><S-TAB>  pumvisible() ? "\<C-p>" : "\<S-TAB>"

        Plug 'Shougo/neco-syntax'

        Plug 'Shougo/echodoc.vim'
            set noshowmode
            let g:echodoc#enable_at_startup = 1

        Plug 'zchee/deoplete-jedi'

call plug#end()

I also tried to remove the <TAB> remapping, but it doesn't seem to be it.
What am I missing?

Here's a screenshot of a python file:

Edit: I just noticed I omitted my nvim version:

$ nvim --version

It works. You need to select the completion item and input (.

Hi,
I just revisited this, and looking at the readme:

When you accept a completion for a function with , echodoc will display the function signature in the command line and highlight the argument position your cursor is in.

This information is misleading - I could never get it showing right after pressing <c-y>. The hints will always show after accepting and inputting the next possible character.
Maybe it's a good idea to clarify this to prevent further misunderstandings?

The PR is wellcome to improve the documentation.
I don't know what is the better.
